In one John five point nineteen. John that Beloved says in his epistle First John five point nineteen, and the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one. And the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one, who is the wicked one, Satan. The whole world, John the Beloved says, it lies under the sway, under the influence, under the control of Satan. And it is so clear, so vivid, my beloved, when we look at this world we live in, we could see that evilness, that wickedness, that ungodliness is so ever present in this world.
Why because Satan rules over this world. That's why in the world there is destruction, killing, bloodshed, division, evil. That's what you see in the world. You're evil because Satan rules over it, the evil one. Now, the first thing Satan did he made Adam and Eve both fall, and he said to the women, has God indeed said you shall not eat of every tree of the garden Genesis three one. Satan came to the women and whispered in her ear. He said, did really God say you don't eat from any tree in the garden. God didn't say you do not eat from all the trees. God said, do not eat from one particular tree, which is the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. But Satan is none to falsify the truth, twist it and do
it in a way that is contradictive to what God is truly saying. And God said to Adam, the day you eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, show you shall die. Satan came and said, you will not die. Trust me. God said, you will die. Satan said, no, you will not die. Trust me. In fact, if you eat from that tree, Adam, you will be like God, knowing good and evil, just like God knows everything good and evil. You will become like God. Eat You're not gonna die. What a liar, What a liar?
And look at the world biggest lie. People lie to each other, act towards one another. Because that's the fruits of Satan, very vividly clear and seen in the world. Now, who among us might be loved? When Satan whispers in our ear, we do not listen to him and do it. Do what he whispers in our ear, We do it accordingly, And at the end we rig read it. All of us have fallen into that trap of Satan. Where he comes, whispers in that ear like he did with our mother Eve.
This whisper that says to you, go and do this. Go over there, meet that guy, take that powder, go and gamble, go and drink, Go with this woman and that woman, and every woman and every guy, and make yourself it instead of he or she. Go and do whatever you want to do. That's the whisper of Satan. And haven't we all fallen into this whisper? Oh yes, oh yes, my good love. We do have a lot of regrets every now and then. I wish I had not said this. I wish I had not done this.
I wish I had not gone over there. I wish I had not mixed with these people. I wish, I wish, I wish so many regrets. But stop listening to Satan's whisper. Stop. Every single person in humanity I'm not talking about Christians only. Every single person in humanity has been targeted and marked by Satan. Every single one has been targeted and marked by Satan and influenced by his counsel and influenced by his counsel. However, Satan came to one called Jesus Christ of Nazareth and tried to give counsel to Jesus, and he ended up leaving in a big failure. He failed miserably.
The Lord Jesus put Satan to shame. Satan was shocked for the first time in his entire life. A human being in the flesh, a human being puts me to shame. I overcame all people. Who is this Jesus that put me to shame? You see, Satan fought with Adam and Eve with food. He also fought with the Lord Jesus with food. He said to the Lord, a few other son of God, say to these stones to be bred, Just like he fought with Adam and Eve with food, eat from this tree, so as he did the same thing with Jesus Christ of Nazareth. A few other son of God, say to these stones to be bred. The Lord Jesus replied and said, it is not by bread alone a man shall live, but by every word that is uttered from the mouth of God. Could not win,
could not win. He fought the Lord with glory. He said to the Lord. He took him up to the pinnacle of the temple, to the edge of the temple, he said, throw yourself from here. And because It's written that God will charge of his angels to come and carry you lest your foot, you know, dashes against the stone, and you will be glorified before all people glory. The Lord Jesus said, do not tempt the Lord your God.
Don't put him to the test. And then he thought, the Lord Jesus with ownership. He took him on a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said, if you bow down and worship me, I'll give you this kingdom. I'll make you a king honor. He said to him, Away with you, Satan. It is written that you serve the Lord your God, and you worship him alone. You worship God and you serve him alone. Away with you, Satan.
What the Lord Jesus was saying that I do not seek ownership, neither from you, Satan, nor from any man. I seek it from God alone. I seek it from God alone, my beloved alone. So the Lord Jesus, in all the trials that he was put through, he came out triumphant. Satan could not win with Jesus the man. He could not win with him, no matter what he tried to do. He could not win with the Lord Jesus.
So the Lord came out triumphant. Also, I can say to all of us might be loved. The Lord Jesus sent a very comforting promise. What did he say in John chapter fourteen, verse thirty for the ruler of this world who is Satan? For the ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in me. So the ruler of this world is coming, who is Satan? And he can't find any error in me, no one mistake.
He tried every way possible to make me fall, and I always put him to shame, for the ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in me. John fourteen thirty. Now can we claim the same statement as Lord Jesus said, The ruler of this world is coming and he has nothing in me. Can I say that? No, Only Jesus was able to say it as the perfect man.
Only Jesus might beloved. We are unfaithful. But Jesus Christ of Nazareth, all glorious, wholly and mighty name, is always faithful, is always faithful. Then if he is the only one who is faithful, if he is the only one who was able to overcome Satan, then what about us? What we do now? The Lord Jesus says, don't worry. I will give you myself. You can't overcome Satan, but I will give you myself so that through me you can overcome Satan. Without me, you cannot do anything John fifteen five.
Without me, says the Lord, you cannot do anything without me, Satan will devour you. At me, you will be lost. Without me, you will be dead one hundred percent, My son, my daughter, don't ever let any whisper come and brainwash you and say, look, this is easy, I can do it myself. The smallest of the smallest of the smallest things, you better pray and ask the Lord to be with you in it, and small things and big things. In all things, you must ask the Lord to be with you. Otherwise, forget it, my beloved child, forget it. You cannot do it.
So the Lord says, I will give you myself. Don't worry. You will receive me fully. You will receive me fully. The Lord says to us, you have a spirit in you. My spirit will dwell in you. There is a soul in you. You are a soul. Jesus Christ will give you my soul and my soul I give to you through the blood, because the soul lies in the blood.
That's why he gave us his blood. He gave us his soul. Because my spirit became corrupt, he gave me his Holy spirit, the incorruptible. My soul became also corrupt. He gave me his pure soul. And then he said, you have a body, I will give you my body. Here. Take eat my body and drink my blood. He who eats my body and drink my blood lives in me and I in him. So I'll give you all of me in order to overcome Satan. Because the only person, the only man that stepped and crushed the head of the snake, the serpent Satan, was Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
Every other man failed and fell into sin, including all prophets, all holy men, all patriarchs, doesn't matter who that person was. Satan overcame all except one Jesus of Nazareth. Amen, And the Lord says, in you there is a thought, however this thought became perverted. Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ, Jesus. Philippians to Fife, Saint Paul says, let this mind be in you as it was also in Christ, Jesus, your thought, your mind became corrupt.
Christ gave us his mind. And how did he give us his mind? He gave us his word, the Holy Bible. Who hasn't read it yet, who hasn't opened the Holy Bible yet, who hasn't opened this book yet, might Beloved. The moment you read the Holy Bible, you are receiving the mind and the thought of Christ. That is the only way. How does your mind get shaped by what you hear? How are you influenced by what you hear?
Might Beloved? If you allow the world to infiltrate you and give you the knowledge of the world, you will become worldly. Because whatever you hear and whatever you receive and accept, that's what you're going to become. And that's what you will end up doing. You hear a foul word, before you know it, you will start speaking foul words.
But you hear a holy word, before you know it, you will start praising the all mind to God. He will give us his mind through his word, which is the Holy Bible. He said, I'll give you my word. Think and contemplate. Contemplate on this word in order to be transformed and be renewed by your mind Romans, Chapter twelve.
Do not be conformed to the world, but rather transformed by the renewing of your mind. How do you stop being worldly by being transformed? And how will I be transformed and become different to the world when my mind is renewed? And how is the mind renewed through the Word of God, the Holy Bible. You want to change, You want to give up on addictions. Trench yourself with the word. Swim in it, drink it, breathe it, Let it be your spiritual food. You will change because the Word changes the mind. And in this the first quality of the man is given to us fully. The first quality of the man is given to us fully. And this first quality is what did we say? He did not? What?
Who walks not in the council of the ungodly? You want to avoid Satan, his temptations, his attacks. Hold on to the word of the Lord. Second quality. Second quality. Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor stands in the path of sinners. That is the second quality of the man who is Jesus Christ of Nazareth. This particular statement here of verse is misunderstood. Sometimes nor stands in the path of sinners. Now, how is it misunderstood? Is he my beloved? Some think that when he sees when the Lord Jesus sees sinners, he walks away because he did not stand in the sinner's path. So the moment he saw sinners, he turned, he veered off and walked away from them. No, this first means he did not stand in the way of sinners. In other words, he
was never an obstacle in the sinner's way. He was never an obstacle in the sinner's way. Let me elaborate more with us when it comes to us, might beloved. You know when we know a certain person and then we hear this person has done something wrong, and a lot of people heard that this person has done something wrong.
So what do we do. We walk away from that person. Why because we don't want to be associated with him anymore lest people start talking bad about us. So the moment we hear that they've done something wrong, we avoid them and we walk away from them. Yet the ones who walked away from that sinner are as sinners as that person. So sinners walk away from sinners. The Holy of Hollies, the blameless, the perfect man, and the Perfect God came and embraced sinners, never walked away from them.
The perfect Man, who is the man, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, the Holy of Holies, did not stand in the way of the sinners. He was never an obstacle in their way or to them. But rather he said it very clearly, The Lord Sesus said, I have not come to call righteous but sinners to repentance. I came exactly for the sinners, exactly for the sinners, my beloved.
In Luke fifteen, when we read in Luke chapter fifteen, verses oneted two, it says the following. Then all the tax collectors and the sinners drew near to him, meaning Jesus to hear him. And the Pharisees and scribes complained, saying, this man receives sinners and eats with them. So the scribes and the pharisees approached the apostles of the Lord Jesus, and they said, how come your teacher is going into sinners homes and eating with them. You're claiming that your teacher is holy. He is sent from God from above.
He came down. How can he mix with sinners and eat with them? So in a way they were trying to put the blame on the apostles. Why are you still walking with this man who is associating himself with sinners and eating with them? Now, what do you think, my beloved? If I ask you this question, does the Lord Jesus enters sinners homes and eats with them? What do you think? Does the Lord Jesus enters sinners homes and eats with them? Yes, it's very old, isn't it.
Come on? Does he enter sinners' homes and eats with them? Absolutely not? I disagree. The Lord Jesus does not enter homes the homes of the sinners and eats with them. The Lord Jesus, however, he asks sinners to let him into their home. He does not enter, but he awaits for the sinners to let him in. There's a difference.
If he himself enters, that means he likes the company. The Lord Jesus loves the sinners, hates sin The Lord Jesus loves the sinners but hates sin He can never enter willingly into a sinner's house because that means since he entered willingly, that means he enjoys their sinful life. Never ever, the Lord will accept sin, but he came for the sinner. That's why he will not come in.
But he will do everything in his power to let you open the door and allow him to come in. He wants the call to come from you, not from him. He wants you to open the door. Also, the Lord Jesus did not eat with them, as the text collectors and the pharisees said to the apostles in Look fifteen, verses one to two. He did not eat with them. Actually, the Lord gave them himself to eat. He fed them.
He did not go and eat with them. He came to feed them. So the Lord, my beloved, says, I don't enter sinner's homes. I am waiting for them to let me in. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with me. Revelation three twenty. He's standing at the door and knocking. You need to open the door. If you open, he will enter, and he will dine, meaning he will have dinner. It is nighttime, my beloved. The dinner is served at night and night Biblically speak in is sinful life. So the Lord will enter in your sinful life, and he will eat with you, and you with him. The question is what will the Lord eat from your plate? And what will you eat from his plate?
He will enter to do what he's entering your sinful life. So what is he gonna eat? All of your sin, jealousy, envy, bigotry, hatred, pride, anger, you name it. He will eat from your plate, and your plate is full of sin. And then he will allow you to eat from his plate, and his plate is all holiness, all salvation. So, in fact, the Lord did not enter the sinner's home, but rather waited for them to allow him to enter. And when he entered, he did not eat. He gave them himself to eat.
Because unless you eat the body and drink the blood of the Son of Man, you have no life in you. You have no life in you. So those scribes and Pharisees, they were sons of the snake to stay such a statement about Jesus to the disciples. How come your teacher enters the sinner's homes and eats with them. You know, when someone does not want to open their hearts to the Lord, someone does not wish to give their will to the Lord Jesus. They will speak foolishly, and they will remain blind in their sin and their sin. And in this, my beloved, the complete picture of the second quality is given to us. And the second quality is nor stands in the path of sinners, nor stands in the path of sinners. Saint Paul puts it so beautifully,
my beloved, and he says in Romans chapter five, verse eight, he says, but God demonstrates his own love toward us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us sam Zorol. Sam Zorol. He was never an obstacle in the sinner's way to come into repentance. He did not walk away from sinners. He came specifically for sinners to bring them back to holiness, My beloved, Now, the third quality, nor sits in the seat of the scornful, scornful, contemptuous, or lofty or insulting, somebody who ridicules all these kind of things, and sits norsits in the seat of the scornful. Now, who is the seat of the scornful? The Sinnhedrin Council, the Israelite nation had a council made out of seventy elders.
It was called the Sanhedrin Council. Nowadays you could call it the parliament or the Congress of the United States of America, or the Parliament House of Australia. These are all the scornful. They talk, talk and talk, and talk and talk. What a show to put on. The council of the scornful is words, no action. The Lord Jesus said, blessed is the man who sits, nor sits in the seat of the scorn. The Sanhedrin Council might be loved, like we said, it's like a parliament or Congress of like the United States of America. For example, when the Lord Jesus came to the Temple. When the Lord Jesus came into the Temple, he could have entered the Hollies, which is where he sit. He could have entered the Holy of Holies, which is the only altar. But he
chose to enter the outer court. Just like everybody else. He did not differentiate himself with no other human being. He came so humble, so simple, so hidden. He never showed himself. He was never a show of. But the Temple is his everything. Is his. He is Yahweh, God revealed in the flesh, the God of the Israelites, the God of the entire world, the God of all worlds, heaven and earth, and everything that is in it. He he is the creator of all and everything. Yet when he came to his own temple, to his own house, he did not enter, neither the holies nor the Holy of holies. But he stood in the outer court, just like everyone else, just like everyone else. Saint Paul talks about the Lord in his Epistle to the Hebrew chapter eight,
and he says, we have the high priest, but he never practiced his priesthood. He never offered a sacrifice. Like Priest of the Old Testament died of his time. He never practiced his priesthood. Yet he was the priest and the high priest, but he never practiced his priesthood. He did not offer a sacrifice. Even when he would heal someone, he would say to that someone, go and show yourself to a priest. But hang on, Lord, you are the healer, you are God, you are the priest, you are the high priest, and you just healed this man. And then you say, go and show yourself to the priest. He said yes, because I am all about humility. I'll never show off. He did not come to abolish the law, but rather fulfill it perfectly. He never asked to be
a member in the Sinhedron council. He never asked for that. He did not sit in the seat of the scornful. This Sanhadron council might beloved. Our father Jacob spoke of it in Genesis chapter forty nine. The council or the Sanhadrian Council the seventy elders. Majority of this council consisted of priests, scribes, and Pharisees. That was the majority of the Sanhadrian council. Priests, scribes, and Pharisees. Priests, the they all came from the tribe of Levy and from the house of Aaron, but they were all Levites. Priesthood in the Old Testament could not have come from any other tribe but the tribe of Levy, and specifically the house of Erin. So priests came from the tribe of Levy.
Levy was one of the sons of Jacob, and Pharisees and scribes majority came from the tribe of Simeon, another son of Jacob now Simeon. Leah gave birth to him and Levy also Leah gave birth to him. You know, I remember the story of Jacob where his uncle Laban said to him, I'll give you my daughter Leah for free.
He said, no, I want to marry Rachel. He said, okay, if you want a merry Rachel and insists you need to work for me as a slave for seven years. He served his uncle for seven years and then he said, I've fulfilled my duty. He said, no, I changed my mind. I'll give you another seven years before I give you Rachel.
He worked another seven years as a slave, fourteen years of slavery until he married Rachel. Rachel gave him two sons, Joseph and Benjamin. Joseph was sold by his brothers and his father cried after him until he lost his sight, and Benjamin killed and took away the love of Jacob's life Rachel, while giving birth to Benjamin. So the one he loved the most and worked as a slave for fourteen years to marry, destroyed him. But the one whom he married for free gave him the Sinhedrin counsel. Don't we do the same? Come to church? For free. I don't want to. You got to Satan. You spend a lot of money. You got to a concert. How much do you pay You got to a club? How much do you put in there between the drinks and the
ling Mmmm? Satan sucks all the blood and you love going there. Christ gives you his blood, eternal life for free, and you say no, I don't want I'll work as a slave for Satan, but I will never work as a son for Christ. You need to be careful. I be loved, choose the Lord. Don't ever walk away from him.
Don't ever walk away from him. So I beloved. Priests came from the tribe of Levy. Scribes and Pharisees came from the tribe of Seamen, and they were the majority of the Sanhedrin council. Our father Jacob says, as if he is seeing the Senhedron council in the end of times, at the time of the Lord Jesus, As if he is seeing it. What does Jacob say in Genesis forty nine, when we read verses five to six, Look at this, He says, Simeon and Levy, our brothers, instruments of cruelty are in their dwelling place. Let not my soul enter their council, Let not my honor be united to their assembly?
Jacob Is prophesying. And then, for in their anger they slew a man. For in their anger they slew a man. Who is this man Jesus? And then what and in their self will they hand strung an ox? And who is this ox? Judas is carried Genesis forty nine six. For in their anger they slew a man Jesus. And in their self will they hamstrung an ox Judas's carrier?
Now where do I get this from? You read in Exodus chapter twenty one, verse thirty two. It tells you what Genesis forty nine five to six is all about. So in Exodus twenty one thirty two, it says, if the ox gorees a male, hits that male with the horns. If the ox gores a male or female servant, he shall give to their master. So the honor of the ox shall give to the master of that servant thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned killed.
If the ox gorees a male or female servant, who was Jesus on earth? What was Jesus on earth? He became a servant. He emptied himself from all glory and became a servant. So which one was the ox that gore the man Jesus? Judas is carriath. So what does the master of Jesus' carriers do? You shall give the servants master thirty pieces of silver. Jesus was sold for thirty pieces of silver, and Judas received it from the priests, the Pharisees, and the scribes of the Israelite nation. Wow, the priests gave Judas thirty pieces of silver for Christ's capture.
Jacob says, let not my honor be united to their assembly, And the Lord Jesus says, nor sit in the seat of the scornful. The Lord did not sit in the seat of the Sanhedrin council. That's gone full. And Jacob says, let not my honor be united to their assembly. For their assembly in the end of times will be wicked and evil, because they gathered together to kill Jesus. And that's what Jacob prophesied in Genesis forty nine. See, even when they brought the Lord Jesus to the Andhedrin council, he did not speak nor defend himself because the ox gore the servant. The deal was made, So you're bringing me to do what Judah already received the price of Exodus twenty one thirty two. Why should I talk? And anyway?
I came for this. I came for this even before ponches Pilot. The Lord Jesus did not talk. The only time when Pilot said, do you not know that I have power to crucify you and have power to release you? He forced the Lord Jesus say something. The Lord Jesus then had not chous but to answer this time, is Pilot, you have power to crucify me or to release me? Well, let me tell you then, you could have no power at all against me unless it had been given you from above, from my father. Who do you think you are, mister President? Who do you think you are? Mister Prime Minister?
Who do you think you are? King? You have no power unless it is given to you from a above. A time will come where every knee will bow before Jesus Christ of Nazareth, and they will confess with their tongues that this is God and there is no other God but him. Time will come. He's in charge, my beloved, He's in control and whatever happened, whatever is happening, and whatever will happen, it is all by the knowledge of God, and it is all by Him allowing it within his own plan, according to his divine wisdom and divine will.
Nothing happens without Christ's approval, my beloved, nothing, nothing at all. When wars happen in certain parts of the world, it's not for us to come and then start talking, Oh, let's let's get the holy bubble and say, oh, yes, there is a prophet about Iran, and there's a prophecy about Iraq, and there's a prophecy about I don't know what. Yes, true, there is prophecies true. But we in Australia, we in America, we in Canada, we in Europe, we in Asia. What are we learning from these wars? Are we waking up?
Are we saying enough doing the wrong things in life? Are we saying enough doing it my way? Are we saying enough jumping and dancing and going here and there and going out naked in the streets? Are we saying enough? Are we waking up? Because that war can very easily move to Australia or any other country before we blink our eyes. It's so easy. It's the Lord who is managing everything. Oh. People, people, people, people, people, people. My beloved, my beloved, my beloved, the Lord Jesus said to Pilot, if it was not given by my father to you, you had no power over me. I am in control, but I came to be crucified. That's why my Dad allowed you to judge me or to even speak to me.
He allowed you. Otherwise you couldn't have. You couldn't have. Even Satan wanted to give the Lord Jesus ownership, make him king over the kingdoms of the world and their glory. The Lord Jesus says, I do not take ownership, neither from men nor from Satan. I take it from God and God alone. Sound two verse six, King David is saying, here, yet I have set my king on my holy hill of Zion. I mean, this is God the Father speaking through King David and talking about his beloved son, Jesus Christ.
God the Father is talking about his son Jesus Christ. He's saying, yet, I have set my king on my holy hill of Zion. Who was that king that was set on that high hill of man Zion. It was Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Who said him, there, God, the Father blessed is the man three qualities we will receive from him if we believe and follow this man who is Jesus Christ. And to sum up these qualities, what will we receive from the Lord g if we truly follow him and the three qualities that we just talked about?
The first one who walked, who walks not in the council of the ungodly? What will you receive from the Lord? If you follow the Lord the way he walked, You walk in him, through him, by him, and with him. What is the fruit of being not walking in the council of the ungodly, And then nor stands in the path of sinners? What is the gift you can receive?
Nor sits and the seat of the scornful? What gift will Christ give you? Because he is the only man that did all of these, All of us failed except this man. If you believe in him, if you live in him and for him whatever he has done, you will receive the gifts of these three qualities that are vividly present in Christ Jesus. The first quality who walks not in the council of the ungodly, the man Jesus Christ of Nazareth will change us from dust to rock.
That's the gift who walks not in the council of the ungodly. He will change you from dust to rock. Now who is the ungodly? What did we say? Who's done? Godly? Satan? Correct? Absolutely so? Now what does it mean? Christ will change you from dust to rock? Satan is also referred to as the old serpent, snake snake, sneaky, sneaky, sneaky. The snake can leave a mark on the dust. When the snake crawls on the dust, it leaves a print behind it.
Can the snake leave a mark on the rock? The ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in me. Why because all of you are dust. The only one in the mister of you who is the rock is Jesus. Say it and crawled on me. But because I'm the rock, he was not able to leave any mark on me, meaning he could not ever make me fall into sin like he did with you. If you hold on to this blessed is the man. If you hold on to this man, he is the rock, and if you live in him, he will make you that rock. Who is the rock of all ages. As Malachi says about Christ, He'll make you that rock, meaning say, it will not be able to overcome you in the rock that you have hid yourself in. Have you got time?
I have to summer up. The Holy Bible refers to the world as the desert. The world is resembled by the desert in the biblical sense. When we are in the desert, the desert might beloved, has no shelter, has nothing. There's one thing in the desert, or there's many things, but one thing in the desert. For sure, If I stay for too long, ah, it will be fatal. The sun a s u n. The Sun's heat burn me.
I will become dehydrated and burned so badly. If I do not leave the desert, or if I'm still in the desert, I need to find the shelter to prevent me and protect me from the scourging sun. That s u n here is Satan. The world is resembled by the desert. Who rules the world, the desert Satan Satan. As the sun is burning the people that are chasing the world, he will take them to Hell where he belongs.
If they do not repent and come back to the only rock that we found in this desert. When you find the rock in the desert, like airs rock. When you find the rock in the desert, you'll find like a opening, a crevice. There are crevices in that rock. There is a crevice where I enter, like a small cave in that rock. When I enter in that cave, outside is forty degrees forty three. Inside is twenty three beautiful.
No more sun burning me, no more son killing me. That little opening in the rock is the side of Christ that was pierced by the centurion. Christ is the rock, and he made an opening for us so that when Satan comes and burn us with his deception and make us fall into sin, we need to run to that little opening in this rock. And added this rock came two things blood and water. Blood for the body and the blood the Holy Eucharist, water for the holy baptism.
The Lord Jesus says, I am the Rock of salvation. As Malachi prophesied in his book, I am that rock that saved you from say it in the sun that was burning in you all your life, making you fall into sin. Come run to this little opening in this rock where water came out for the baptism. I gave you a new birth from above where you will die no longer. And I gave you the blood, which is my body and blood. When you eat my body and drink my blood, I will wash away all of your sins which Satan made you fall into. I'll wash it all, and I'll make you a new creation once again. The desert was not able to kill you because there was the rock in it with a little opening on the side, the Holy Eucharist and the Holy Baptism. You follow the man,
he'll change you. The Lord Jesus will change you from dust to rock where Satan can't crawl on you. And even if he does, he cannot leave a mark, because now you are fighting against Satan through Christ. Jesus no longer you because if you fight him alone, you're a piece of dust. Satan. By the way, when God condemned that snake, what did he say? He say, you will crawl on your belly all your life, and you will eat the dust of the earth. And what is our body matter of dust? Meaning Satan has power to overcome your body. In other words, Sayatan tempts us through the body in order to get to the spirit. He can't go directly to the spirit. He has no authority from God.
But he has been given authority from God to tack the body. And what is the weakness of the body? Last? You know when he said, if you are the son of God, say to these stones to be bred. He's not talking about balback bread Lebanies. No, he's not talking about the Italian or the French, No, or the Persian.
The best bread in the world is from Tehran, Iran. He's not talking about that. He's talking about lust, all kind of lust, and the flesh, the weakness of the flesh is lost. The cure for this last is fasting. What is fasting? You are abstaining yourself from doing what the body loves doing. So, if the body loves the club, say to the body, shut up, I'm fasting. I'm not taking you to the club. If the body wants to drink, you will say no more. If the body wants to have fun, you say no more. You drag the body to the church and take him into that crevice of that rock and hide in it. Less Satan devours you, he will change you from dust rock. That's the first quality.
Second quality nor stands in the path of sinners. The man Jesus Christ will change you from sinner to saint. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. I will never be a stumbling stone for the sinners. I hate sin, but I love the sinner. That's why I came. But for me to come and save you from your sinful life, and enter your home and eat with you. I want you to open the door.
My role is, but your role is to open. I will not force myself in, and if I do, I am seen as a thief. And I will never accept for me to be a thief unless I'm the owner of the house. I cannot accept anything else. I'll knock he who opens the door, I will enter and dine with him. I'll have dinner with him. He will eat from my plate. I will eat from his plate. I will take all your sins, and I will give you all my holiness. I'll change you from a sinner to saint if you follow the man third quality nor sits in the seat of the scornful. The man who is Jesus Christ will change us from slaves to sons. That's the third quality. He will change us from slaves to sons.
The Lord said it. I do not take ownership, neither from you say it, nor from any man. I take it from my father, because my father made me that king over the hill of Zion. I am known to be the king of all kings. And I took this ownership from my heavenly father. I listened to no one but my Dad, who art in heaven. This is the man you must be proud of. Where that man makes God everything everything for him. My daughter, marry the man that loves the Lord. Don't marry a rich man, don't marry a handsome man. Marry a man that loves the Lord.
You will never regret it. Never. The third quality nor sits in the seat of the scornful. The man here in some one one who is Jesus Christ will change us from slaves to sons. Yet I have set my king on my holy hill of Zion. Sound two six, three qualities of the man that will give to all of us. If we truly believe and trust in him and follow him one, you'll become a rock in him.
Satan can't leave a mark on you anymore because Christ is your protector, because you willingly made him your protector. And here's the Rock. He's the only rock as the man in all of humanity. All humanity are dust except Jesus. Rock is not dust. That's why his body never decayed, lives forever does decays dies. His body is alive and living forever is the Rock. One of the church fathers of the East where I belong to says, there are three ways you do not see a mark left behind.
Three ways you do not see a print or a mark left behind. One an eagle in the sky. Two a boat in the sea. Three a snake on the rock, an eagle in the sky. The eagle flies in the sky and goes you come. You can't tell if there was an eagle that was flying here five minutes ago, because there is no no mark left. And who is the eagle here that flies in the sky that leaves no mark? Saints? The life of saints is hidden. Why because it's a It's a private life between them and God only, a life full of secrets, an intimate life between the heavenly groom and the bride who is the church.
A person that is truly sacrificed their life for the Lord Jesus. Do not talk much about themselves. And even if they talk. What they say compared with to what they don't say, is not even one percent. Why because Christ, when he makes you an egle in his heaven, you will live, you will fly, you will walk, you will talk like him. What do you know about Christ? Not much?
Very secretive and very quiet. He only spoke for three and a half years, but he was silent in heaven for six thousand years. Biblicly, the boat in the sea. When the boat is sailing, it cuts through the waters. You see the path, but as it leaves, a couple of minutes later, the water comes back and the path is white, is gone. You come. You don't know if a boat passed through here or not. There is no track left behind. When the Lord Jesus touches your heart and starts transforming you from being a slave, from being a sinner, from being worldly into spiritual heavenly into the sun.
When you walk on earth and live for Christ. While on earth, you will sail through this earth, or this world which is this, You will sail through it. But all they see is a small mark and then it fades away. They don't know much about you, and a lot of times they don't even know anything about you. And like we said, snake on the rock. Satan can't win with Christ, who is the rock, no matter how much tries, can't leave a print back. And then the third quality He will make us sons nor sits in the seat of the scornful from slaves to sons. When is the person? When does a person become slave? Who can tell me? Do you know when we are slaves?
When we follow the flesh of the spirit, we are slaves. We become slaves to our own lusts. We become slaves to the world, We become slaves to other people. We become slaves eventually to say, than the moment we walk in the flesh. In other words, all we care about a person that cares about what shall I eat, what shall I drink? What kind of house shall I have?
What kind of a car dress? I need to go out? I need to have fun, I need to travel, I need to go partying. I need to go I need to do I need I need I I I I I. This eye is all day long being repeated by me. It's about me. That person becomes a slave to the lust, to the world, to people, to Satan. Even people will direct your footsteps all you care about is about what people think of you. All you care about is to please people. That's your focus. Because you're living for the world, you are not focusing on Christ. Therefore, the moment we lose focus on Christ, everything becomes material. Christ is spirit, Christ is spiritual. Christ said it. The birds of the sky have a nested dwell in. Foxes have homes to
go and live in. But the Son of men, Jesus Christ, has nowhere to lay his head on. He came to take us to heaven, not to give us this world. He came to give us heaven, eternal life, joy forever, glory forever, honor forever, dignity forever, identity forever, home forever, Son forever, no more slave. Son. Freedom is when you have the Son, and if the sun sets you free, truly you are free, says the Holy Bible, says the Lord.
And if the Son, who is Jesus Christ, sets you free, truly you are free. When do we become free? When we are sons not slaves? And when are His slaves? When we'll lose strike of Christ, we become worldly and anything and everything that is worldly slavery slavery. A slave works all their life but they own nothing. They own nothing.
We work very hard in this world all our life, and at the end death takes away everything. We live with nothing. That's slavery. You follow the world you own nothing. Did anyone die and took home and car and money and gold and diamonds with them empty? Empty handed. I came out of the womb of my mother, and it is also known that I will go back to my mother earth, to the grave, also empty handed. That is slavery.
I came with nothing. I chased nothing. I became a nothing slave. But the son inherits the father and everything the Father has. That is freedom. Christ the Man says, if you follow me and believe in me, I'll make you a rock, for I am the rock where Satan can't win with you anymore. And I will change you from a sinner to a saint, where you'll fly like an eagle in the heaven of your Christ. And you leave no mark for others to know what Christ is doing for you. This is between me and you only, and then I'll make you at the end, my son, whatever I have, you have. The kingdom is yours, the throne is yours, the glory is yours. The honor is yours.
You are the inheritor, and you are the You are the heir to my throne and to my kingdom. Everything becomes yours, and not only the kingdom. I will become you, and you will become me. We become one, Amen. Mm hmm
